Heath homes on one acre or more sold for a median of $1,120,000 and about $253 per square foot across 51 closed sales in the 12 months ending October 30, 2026, according to NTREIS. That is about $440,000 more than the $680,000 median for Heath homes on smaller lots, and the gap comes from land, house size and finish together, not land alone.
The Agency Dallas, an independently owned and operated brokerage serving North Texas, pulled every closed Heath sale for the last 12 months and separated the acreage homes. Here is what owners and buyers on larger Heath lots should know.
What do Heath acreage homes sell for in 2026?
The 51 NTREIS sales on one acre or more, October 30, 2025 to October 30, 2026:
- Median sale price: $1,120,000
- Middle half of sales: $915,000 to $1,450,516
- Range: $379,000 to $4,100,000
- Median price per square foot: about $253
- Median home size: about 4,430 square feet on a median lot of just over one acre
- Pools: 37 of the 51 homes had one
For comparison, the 241 Heath sales on lots under an acre had a median of $680,000 and about $214 per square foot, on homes of about 3,300 square feet. See our Heath neighborhood guide for the full market.
How does price change as the lot gets bigger?
Most Heath acreage sales are on lots just over an acre. The bands look like this:
- One to 1.5 acres: 40 sales, median $1,050,000, about $253 per square foot.
- 1.5 to 2 acres: 4 sales, median $1,295,000.
- Two to five acres: 3 sales, a mix of a smaller older home and larger estates.
- Five acres or more: 4 sales, median $2,775,000, about $357 per square foot.
The pattern is clear at the ends. Lots just over an acre trade like large suburban homes, while five acre properties trade as estates, with a much higher rate per square foot because the land is a large share of the value.
Where in Heath do acreage homes sell?
Acreage sales are spread across many small subdivisions rather than one community. The few with three acreage sales in the 12 months show the range:
- Crestridge Meadows: 3 sales, median about $665,000
- Cobblestone Farms: 3 sales, median about $1,200,000
- The Ridge: 3 sales, median about $1,490,000
- Ridge Lakes: 3 sales, median about $2,375,000
- Meadow Lake Village: 3 sales, median about $3,650,000
Same acreage, very different prices. In our experience, water views, the age of the home and the quality of the finish separate a $665,000 sale from a $3,650,000 one more than the size of the lot does.
Does a pool add value on a Heath acre?
Not in a simple way. The 37 acreage homes with a pool had a median of $1,100,000 and about $253 per square foot, while the 14 without had a median of $1,214,500 and about $282. That does not mean a pool lowers value. It means buyers at this level expect outdoor living on an acre, and the homes without pools may differ in size, age or setting. A pool helps a home meet expectations; it rarely sets the price by itself.
How does Heath acreage compare with other North Texas acreage towns?
Buyers who want an acre near Dallas-Fort Worth often shop more than one town. Over the same 12 months, NTREIS shows:
- Heath, one acre or more: 51 sales, median $1,120,000, about $253 per square foot
- Aledo address, one acre or more: 147 sales, median $849,500, about $258 per square foot
- Argyle address, one acre or more: 77 sales, median $1,270,000
- Bartonville, all sales: 27 sales, median $2,000,000, nearly all on an acre or more
Heath sits in the middle of that range, with lake access as the feature the western towns cannot offer. For a seller, those towns are part of the competition when the buyer is relocating and open to any side of the metroplex.
How should you price a Heath home on an acre or more?
Acreage pricing goes wrong when it borrows a citywide median. At The Agency Dallas we:
- Start with acreage sales only, since smaller-lot homes sell at a lower rate.
- Match by lot band. A 1.1 acre home and a five acre estate are different products.
- Value the land and the house separately, then check the total against similar sales.
- Adjust for water views, outbuildings, shop space and outdoor living.
- Market to buyers in Dallas, Fort Worth and relocation channels who are looking specifically for land near the lake.
For larger tracts, our Rockwall County land guide covers what drives price per acre. For lake homes, see what lakefront homes on Lake Ray Hubbard sell for, and compare with our Rockwall neighborhood guide.
What should a buyer check on a Heath acre?
Before writing an offer on acreage in Heath, buyers should confirm:
- Whether the property is on city water and sewer or uses a septic system.
- The survey, easements and any flood plain on the lot.
- Deed restrictions or HOA rules on outbuildings, fencing and animals.
- The assigned school campus for the specific address.

Four Heath sales on five acres or more closed in the 12 months ending October 30, 2026, at a median of $2,775,000 and about $357 per square foot. With so few sales, each estate is priced on its own merits, and land makes up a large share of the value.

Not directly. In the last 12 months, 37 of 51 Heath acreage homes had pools and sold at a median of $1,100,000, while the 14 without sold at $1,214,500. Buyers expect outdoor living on an acre, so a pool helps a home compete more than it raises the price.
